 these posts becoming common now, BFO would sound beefy...but nothing beats a drilled air box and panel filter

Ive just got a viper  bought it second hand for £68 quid plus gotta buy a new cold air feed for it so costing about 100 in total. Do they really sound good? I heard they are really quiet?

And the BFO has a cone shaped bit of aluminium that sort of channels the air into the car.... don't think the piperx has this.

at the end of the Day the only differance in the 2 is looks, as proformace will be the same etc
as the Throttlebody will only suck as much air as it can even if u have a 30meter round filter
